Special Extended Offer: We have recently obtained through a new publisher, both three(3) volume and four(4) volume sets in Hardback and a larger format of the Boy Mechanic series. The volumes contain hundreds of things a boy or girl can build. We offered the set originally in December of 2001 as a three volume set, and the response was tremendous, so we are continuing.... I remember our school library had the Boy Mechanic books and you could hardly ever find them on the shelf. The copies were dog-earred from years of constant use. Even today with TV and other distractions, kids (and adults) will spend hours with these books studying them from cover to cover. This is a timeless gift for your favorite kids (or young at heart adult). There were many updates and reprints of the Boy Mechanic series, originally published by Popular Mechanics, but these are reprints of the original 1913, 1915, 1918, and now 1924. The new hardback three(3) volume set is $79.00 including free shipping in the US. The four (4) volume set in hardback is specially priced at $99.00 including free shipping in the US.
